Other regions with high ICU bed use are Kelantan, Pahang and Penang.

UPDATED 7.10PM | In Sarawak, most new cases are in Cat 1 or 2 (mild or no symptoms).

So, those fully vaccinated are more protected, says Health DG.

Klang Valley daily cases have not been this low since late June.

COVID-19 | Sarawak is only 139 cases shy from Selangor, the current epicentre.

New cases in the Klang Valley down by a third compared to two weeks ago.

Epicenter for the spread of Covid-19 may have shifted away from the capital.

Daily case count is rising in Kedah and Terengganu as well.

The meds are being received in stages, says Noor Hisham.

The system is expected to reduce waste, save resources.

This has to be done at least 7 days before arrival.

UPDATED 8.07PM | New highs in several states as situation beyond Klang Valley worsens.

Hope this can expedite vaccination in rural areas, says DG.

'Face shields can be quickly and affordably produced and distributed.'

However, it's looking grim for regions with low vaccination rate.

COVID-19 | Sabah, Kedah, Sarawak, Penang, Johor and Kelantan are now doing worse than KL.

Noor Hisham is responding to Klang MP's question over the matter.

COVID-19 | Sabah, Sarawak, Kedah, Johor, Penang and Kelantan report 4-digit new cases.

UPDATED 6.45PM | Sabah, Sarawak, Perak and Perlis all reported sharp rise in new Covid-19 cases.

Noor Hisham issues a reminder after the latest SOP relaxation.

Cases in Sabah - which has lowest vaccinations - accelerating upwards.

80 of the deaths have also received one dose of vaccine.
